Aljmaš tavern

Aljmaš tavern has been opened for thirty years in the picturesque village of the same name at the mouth of the river Drava into the Danube. Although the tavern has been known under a different name for a long time, in 2018 it was dubbed “Aljmaš”. The tavern’s offer is mainly based on local traditional dishes and dishes which have become traditional in the last 50 or so years.

River fish dishes are the hallmark of the menu, which is expected given the proximity of the estuary. In addition to fish stew (“fiš”) and fried fish, the tavern offers cold cuts of the local smoke-dried produce. Interestingly enough, this is possibly the only place which offers bacon grilled on an open fire with pita bread as a separate dish. In addition to bacon, the tavern offers a variety of other grilled specialties.

The desserts offered are also traditional. At “Aljmaš” you can order noodles sprinkled with walnuts or poppy seeds, and if required, the tavern chefs will prepare other simple desserts. The beverages offered here are local as well, primarily beer, while the wine list includes wines from local wineries and Baranja wines.
